Story
Meet Louise! “Weezie” for short. Isn’t she the cutest with that curly tail? She is such a goofy girl and a fantastic dog. She has the funniest bark. It’s a combination of a bark and a yodel. Louise is a gentle soul with a big heart, just waiting for the right person to earn her trust. She needs an adopter with a calm home and a patient approach who can give her the space and time she needs to blossom. While in foster care, she has been amazing. She is house broken with no accidents. Crate trained, just say “kennel”, point to crate and step back, she will go in - Treat - Once her routine was established, she had free roam of the house, unless they left, as she is still a puppy and doesn’t know what toys are hers. Responds immediately to “eh”, “mine” and “leave it”. Knows “nite, nite” means bedtime and when she gets in the crate, she gets a treat. She loves her treats! Loves playing in the backyard but if you give her a chew bone, she will probably just go bury it. If she is crated, she will whine if she needs to go out, otherwise, she will go sit at the door. She will do the same when she is ready to come inand if you don’t notice her, she will tap the door with her paw. Does not have separation anxiety and not afraid of storms. Has no aggression of any kind. She sleeps thru the night and loves sleeping in. Quite the princess! Amazing, right? She walks ok on the leash (no flexi-lead) – loud noises, or large dogs tend to be overwhelming. She’s learning to pause and refocus with a little guidance. She seems tohave a high prey drive for squirrels/bunnies, so remain alert and redirect. Foster family has a cat and they had no problems. One note – she does find security in her leash, so if she doesn’t want to come out of the crate, put her leash on, leave it on floor and give her a few minutes. Then see if she will come out with some gentle guidance.Are you that special person with lots of treats for Louise? Are you the one who can commit to her the time and patience she will need to begin to feel safe and loved? If so, you will never find a more rewarding experience with a dog than this.

Story
Noah is a rescue. When I found him as a 1-month old I did not know what breed he was going to be. Turns out he is a 60lb Carolina Dog and very active. I live alone and work a lot, so he spends most of time in his kennel. I feel guilty because I really don't have the time to spend with him. My life situation is at the point where he is just spending 80% of his life kenneled and its not good for him or me. I have kept him long enough to get him all his shots, neutered, and also professional obedience training done. He is a year old now and ready to find a new home where he can be more active and happy! He is very sweet and social, great with kids and other dogs. Kennel and house-trained, and also obedience trained with an e-collar. He knows sit, stay, come, and placing. Walks very well with heel as well. Despite being a big dog, he is a gentle giant that does not bark. Hoping for a home with a family that can be active with him and give him a fulfilling life.

Story
Looking for an active, smart boy who would love a structured home with plenty of exercise?  Chevy is your guy!     Chevy has been in our program for a few years now as he needs to go to that perfect home that understands him and his needs.  You see, Chevy is a working/herding breed of dog and was on his own to fend for himself for so long on the rough streets of Houston that he's leery of people until he gets to know you.  Chevy had been living under a truck for a while (it was a Chevy) while a Scout's Honor volunteer was working to gain his trust. He kept going every day to feed him and give him some attention. The business near where he was let him come onto their property and provided him some shelter.  Unfortunately, because there was a busy street nearby, Chevy got bumped by a few cars when he was out and about and lost a few teeth as a result.  Luckily, he did not sustain any significant injuries, and just needed to eat and get a bath.  Fast-forward a few years, Chevy is in boarding and loves other dogs and loves to play !  He is a high energy dog, but is also very smart and alert. He needs A LOT of exercise and positive reinforcement, but will pick up very quickly on what you are teaching him. He would be a great dog for agility or flyball!!  As long as you keep him busy and challenged he will impress you with how well he can learn things. He just wants someone who will give him the direction, attention and structure he wants/needs. He would make a great dog for an active home with NO kiddos.  Kiddos are just too unpredictable for this guy.  He also needs a home that understands how to properly introduce him to new people and watch his cues.  Chevy can be very protective of his people and area, so proper intros are a must.  He would do best in a home that does not have a lot of new people coming in/out. True to his Kelpie/Basenji breed, Chevy likes to herd and run and play .  Check out this video of him just having a grand time running - look at those turns!      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L81s-TWX9SA&feature=youtu.be  Kelpie's/Basenji's are unique problem solvers and will find a way to do whatever he deems necessary.  True to these breed, he will also be fierlcy protective of his family (getting back to proper intros).  Chevy fits these traits to a T, and anyone who knows and loves the herding breeds would just adore little Chevy!!   Chevy is up to date on vaccinations, neutered and micro-chipped.   Please contact us at info@scoutshonor.org if you are interested in fostering or adopting this precious guy!  You can read all about our foster and adoption process, as well as make a donation for his care, on our website at www.scoutshonor.org.    Scout's Honor Rescue is a 501c3 whose primary focus is rescuing dogs from the euthanasia list from high kill TX shelters. EIN # is 87-0773073 Follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/scoutshonorrescue or Instagram at www.instagram.com/scoutshonorrescue We have multiple ways to donate: Venmo:  @ScoutsHonor-Rescue Paypal: www.paypal.me/scoutshonorrescue   https://scoutshonor.org/take-action/donate/ We are strictly volunteer based, no salaries are paid and 100% of donations go towards rescuing dogs January 22, 2025, 6:49 pm

Story
I was found wandering around Hermann Park on November 8th. While I do have a microchip, I have sadly not been able to get in contact with my owners. I am looking for a new home that can give me lots of love and attention. I really enjoy playing ball, cuddling, and going on walks. I do have lots of energy, so I will need a home with a yard or a family who is very active! I have experience with cats and other dogs, and we have gotten along just fine. I just went to the vet to get up to date on all my vaccines & heartworm/ flea & tick prevention! They said I am probably around 1 year old. I am house trained, know how to sit on command, and eventually will settle down when put in a crate (although I would prefer to sleep in the bed with you).
